Case Study: Purdue Federal Credit Union secures critical systems and achieves compliance with Carbon Black Cb Protection

Purdue Federal Credit Union Secures Critical Systems

Purdue Federal Credit Union, a leading financial institution serving over 71,000 members, faced the challenge of securing critical systems and sensitive financial data while moving beyond the limitations of traditional antivirus. Sr. Network Administrator Dee Lucas evaluated several options and selected Carbon Black’s application control solution, Cb Protection, to lockdown servers and prevent insider-caused changes.

Carbon Black implemented Cb Protection to replace legacy AV, allowing Purdue Federal Credit Union to lock down all servers and critical systems, prevent unwanted changes (including USB/insider threats), and achieve compliance. The deployment materially reduced time spent reimaging machines, delivered significant operational time savings, and improved overall security posture—improvements Dee Lucas says “helped us sleep at night,” highlighting the tangible impact of Carbon Black.
